Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.
If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
Budgeting is necessary for many Arvada residents when factoring the cost of nursing home care into their expenses, which averages $8,669 for semiprivate and $10,053 for private rooms. Seniors seeking additional options could pay up to $1,900 and $1,805 less for in-home and home health care services, respectively. Older adults that don’t require 24-hour skilled nursing may be interested in the savings offered by adult day health care and assisted living, which cost a respective $2,275 and $5,500.
